Veseli se, majko Bozja

puna milosti
Veseli se i raduj se
rajska svjetlosti
Jer si nocas porodila
svojim mlijekom podojila
Boga malahana
veseli se, jer kako si vazda zelila
Od sveg srce sto si Boga
uvijek molila
djevicom si vazda bila
djevicom si porodila Boga nasega
Vesel'mo se i mi braco
ovdje zajedno
al' veselje neka nase
bude pravedno
Svi se grijeha odrecimo
te srdacno utecimo
Bogu rodjeno
